Man stole ambulance with patient inside, police say
MADISON, Wis. — Authorities say a drunken man was arrested after he stole an ambulance from a Wisconsin ski area with the patient and paramedics still inside.
The Dane County Sheriff’s Department said emergency responders were treating a patient in the back of the ambulance at the Tyrol Basin Ski and Snowboard Area in Mount Horeb on Monday night. They said a 24-year-old Illinois man got into the vehicle and drove it around the parking lot.
Fitch-Rona Medical Service Deputy Chief Dale Dow said the ambulance’s emergency brake was on.
